Ginsberg’s workers reject union bid

Ginsberg’s Foods employees on Thursday rejected a bid by Teamsters Local 294 to represent them, the Columbia County-based independent food distributor said. The bid came as Ginsberg’s plans to expand its local operations.

By a more than two-to-one margin, workers turned back the Teamsters local, which the company said had first been voted voted out more than 12 years ago.

Thursday’s vote was 37 for and 79 against, according to the National Labor Relations Board.
